It takes some moxie to run for and serve on the Seven Lakes Landowners Association [SLLA] Board of Directors.

Candidates Paul Chavez, Mary Farley, Sandy Sackmann, and Chuck Leach spent a hour on Wednesday, February 5 being peppered with questions about Association policy and direction.

The occasion was the SLLA Candidates' Night, moderated by Seven Lakes Times Publisher Greg Hankins, who commended the four candidates for stepping forward: “These folk are brave enough not only to sit up here, but are brave enough to endure four years on the Board. I have been covering the community for sixteen years now. Working on the board is not an easy job. Anyone who has served on the Board will tell you that. It is a statement of their love and dedication to the community for them to run.”

During the meeting the candidates, provided brief biographies and explained why they are running for the Board. The audience submitted written questions to be asked by the moderator.
